Ireland has long been one of Onward Travel’s favorite destinations, ever since co-owner Molly Crist spent a few months in 2008 interning at Ballymaloe Cookery School. Ireland has a wonderful food culture thanks to the fertile, mild maritime climate (a gardener’s dream!) and a strong commitment to farm to table. Artisan producers have centuries of culinary tradition that we’ll taste as we enjoy smoked fish, farmhouse cheeses, fresh breads, distillations, and so much more.
Join an optional pre-tour in Dublin or fly into Shannon, as the tour begins in County Clare for easy access to the spellbinding Cliffs of Moher. Travel counterclockwise to Killarney, for three nights on the Iveragh Peninsula to take in breathtakingly beautiful scenery and a bit of Irish music. The next part of the tour is spent in County Cork, a highlight being a hands-on class at Darina Allen’s Ballymaloe Cookery School and a three-night stay at landmark country inn, Ballymaloe House.
In Ireland, the windswept and picturesque craggy coastlines give way to green, lush countryside. It’s a refreshing and wonderful place to immerse yourself in. Warm Irish hospitality, lovely hotels, and beautiful views combine for an unforgettable adventure.
